Verdict
Both Vicksburg and Thought And Memory can boast a couple of winning relatives but Quest For More is a half-brother to five winners, including a Grade 2 winner in America, and may prove best of the newcomers. WORLD RECORD stepped up on his debut effort to finish runner-up at Newmarket on his latest start. The third horse has since franked the form and Richard Hannon's colt gets the nod to go one better. Star Of Mayfair went backwards last time after a promising debut over 6f at this track but Mombasa finished closer on his latest outing and may figure along with Teolagi.
